Hi,<br><br>I haven't seen it announced anywhere, but ActiveState are now providing [http://www.activestate.com/activeperl/downloads/thank-you?dl=http://downloads.activestate.com/ActivePerl/releases/5.18.1.1800/ActivePerl-5.18.1.1800-MSWin32-x86-64int-297570.msi|x86] and [http://www.activestate.com/activeperl/downloads/thank-you?dl=http://downloads.activestate.com/ActivePerl/releases/5.18.1.1800/ActivePerl-5.18.1.1800-MSWin32-x64-297570.msi|x64] MS Windows builds of perl-5.18.1 from [http://www.activestate.com/activeperl/downloads|this] page.
<br><br>My understanding is that these will have been built using mingw64 ports of the gcc-4.6.3 compiler ... but I didn't go to the trouble of checking.
<br>It'll be interesting to see whether they're well received.
<br><br>Cheers,<br>Rob
